A table full of large fish and meat was replaced. Three dishes and a soup were quickly served in the kitchen. Indeed, not even a speck of meat foam could be seen.
Yin Xu picked up a green vegetable and chewed it, then with some difficulty swallowed it down, he asked with a straight face: "Who made this?"
Old Housekeeper had already expected that he would not be used to it so he replied helplessly: "Did you forget? "The wife of the farmer Xu was invited to the kitchen."
The original servant was the original owner's wet nurse, but she was unwilling to be left alone. She had left earlier in the year with a passing merchant, and only later had the sharecropper's wife come to wash and cook.
"Change another one!" Yin Xu frowned and continued to extend his chopsticks towards the next dish. Unfortunately, after trying every dish, he could not eat a second bite.
In the last few hundred years, he would only occasionally use spirit wine and spirit fruits. His tongue had long forgotten the taste of food; he never thought that food from the mortal world would be so unpalatable.
"Yes." Old Housekeeper subconsciously agreed, and then asked: "Do you want to bring that stew elbow over? That was your favorite meal before. "
Yin Xu shook his head, only the previous owners would like that kind of greasy thing, how much more impurities would be added to the body when eating one piece!
The look in Old Housekeeper's eyes became more and more affectionate. It seems like the young master's determination to lose weight is exceptionally strong!
Yin Xu ate half a bowl of rice with the egg-flower soup, then stood up and returned to his bedroom, naturally followed by Old Housekeeper who was behind him.
He walked around the bedroom, throwing away all the things he didn't like, and then said to the butler, "Pack up the room next door and use it as your study. Get another gentleman to come back, Ben... Young Master needs to learn something. "
Having been reborn after a calamity, it was impossible and impossible for Yin Xu to be unwilling to be an unknown fatty and stay in such a desolate place for his entire life.
His ambition was still to ascend through tribulation, and to succeed, he had to have sufficient assistance. In his previous life, he had the backing of the entire demon realm, but he still lost.
Old Housekeeper did not know about this, and happily agreed. He was the one who brought Seventh Young Master up, and their relationship was similar to a father and son. No one was more willing to see their young master improve than him.
In the following month, Yin Xu trained his body in the morning, listened to the lessons in the afternoon, and practiced calligraphy.
The changes on his body became more and more obvious. Not only did he lose weight day by day, his temperament also became more and more outstanding. One look from him was enough to make people break out in cold sweat.
Old Housekeeper didn't know whether to worry or to celebrate. He deeply knew that this kind of Young Master was wrong, but he wasn't willing to break this beautiful illusion.
A month later, Huo Family Villa welcomed their first batch of guests and An County's magistrate brought his eldest son to pay them a visit.
The County Magistrate of An County was originally a small bookkeeper of the capital's Shuntian Prefecture. He had little authority, but he knew quite a lot. He knew very well the number of descendants of princes and princes in the capital city.
When everyone in An County didn't believe that Huo Tian was the son of the Marshal Huo, he actually believed it. He knew that there was indeed a child that had been sent away since he was very young in Huo Family, and he had even seen the butler that followed beside him.
However, after these few years, he had also clearly seen Huo Tian's position in the Huo Family.
This time, his eldest son beat him up and even had a scratch on his face. His wife angrily informed all the doctors in the county that they were not allowed to enter Huo Family Villa's door, and he tacitly allowed it.
From his point of view, Huo Tian was only an abandoned child from the Huo Family, a child who had been forgotten for thirteen years. Even if he returned one day, he would not be able to accomplish much.
But it was different now, he had just received news, the Marshal Huo had won another battle, this time he had completely sent the barbarian from the northwest back to their homeland, the Huo Family would bestow him with a reward very soon, at that time, no matter how poor Huo Tian was, he would still get the word "Huo", who knew when the Great Marshal would think of his useless son on a whim?
"Father, we have already waited for an hour. Isn't that damn fatty too shameless? Do you think he is the Sky Emperor? " County Magistrate Chen's eldest son could not sit still any longer and wanted to rush in while cursing.
County Magistrate Chen quickly grabbed him and scolded: "Sit down! "Don't forget what I brought you here for today!"
"Why should I apologize? "That damn fatty …" Young Master Chen wanted to retort, but his father glared at him.
After an incense's time, Yin Xu finally arrived. Once he entered the room, the two people in the living room all stared wide-eyed, not daring to believe their own eyes.
"Ho..." Seventh Young Master? " County Magistrate Chen called out with suspicion. Was the person in front of him really Huo Tian? Why couldn't he see anything like it?
If it was said that Huo Tian was as fat as a ball in the past, then this could only be described as slightly fatter. He had lost more than three rounds of weight, and his originally squeezed together face was now prominent.
County Magistrate Chen had seen Marshal Huo from afar several times, and ignoring the size and build of his body, Huo Tian really looked too similar to his father.
All the men of Huo Family were abnormally handsome. It was said that because the cultivation methods they cultivated were special, even though they could pull up mountains and carry cauldrons, they weren't thick and strong. Instead, they were thin like bamboo.
This was probably one of the reasons why Huo Tian was ignored when he returned to his clan three years ago.
Yin Xu walked straight to the seat of honor and sat down. He tied his long, wet hair behind his head and asked coldly: "What are you here for?"
County Magistrate Chen's entire body shivered, he subconsciously lowered his body, "This official brought my son here to apologize to you!"
"Oh?" Yin Xu glanced at the father and son duo, his fingers lightly knocked on the table, and asked: "How do you plan to apologize?"
"…" County Magistrate Chen's face froze for a moment, then he took out the gift slip that he prepared beforehand and handed it over to him with both hands, "This is a bit of kindness from this official, I hope that you can accept it."
Yin Xu casually glanced at it and threw it to the butler. In the past month, he had already learnt all of the Big Dipper's words, and was afraid that he would disappoint Young Master Chen who was just watching a joke by the side.
"Is this your sincerity? Just a few pens and pens and some medicinal herbs and you want to send me away? " Yin Xu smiled, his slightly round face actually carrying a trace of killing intent.
County Magistrate Chen's heart jumped, beads of perspiration appeared on his forehead, he quickly pushed his eldest son away and shouted: "Hurry up and apologize!"
"There's no need to apologize!" The moment those words came out, the faces of the Chen family's father and son became clear. This scene caused Yin Xu to feel unspeakably sarcastic.
Such a reckless father and son pair could actually bully the previous owner to death. They didn't know what the previous owner's brain looked like!
Yin Xu lazily leaned against the back of the chair, pointed at Young Master Chen and said, "First let him kneel and kowtow to this young master three times."
The father and son of the Chen family were both stupefied, their breath stuck in their chests as they were unable to get down.
"Not willing? According to the rules of the Big Beam, the lightest injury to someone was at least 30 pieces of wood, right? Besides, do you think I'm some random cat or dog by the side of the road?
No matter how weak I am, I still bear the surname Huo. Tell me, if I pass the news that you all want to put me to death, will they take it seriously? Or would he step out for the sake of the Huo Family?
Or, what if I say that you all are dissatisfied with Huo Family, and purposely insult the descendants of Huo Family? Take a guess, will Huo Zhengquan praise you two for your insults? "
Of course not! The Huo Family was the opening merit point of the country. With such a powerful weapon in hand, not even the Emperor would dare to slap his face, let alone a mere Sesame County Order like his.
The Chen father and son pair had their heads lowered, their hearts in turmoil. Just how had they neglected this in the past? Or perhaps, how did the previous Huo Tian neglect this point?
Would a son who dared to call the Marshal Huo by his full name really be as weak and powerless as they thought?
"Evil creature!" After County Magistrate Chen understood what was going on, he wiped off his sweat and knelt down while suppressing his eldest son, reprimanding him: "Hurry up and kowtow and apologize, Seventh Young Master is magnanimous, I will definitely forgive you for your foolishness!"
Yin Xu smiled and did not reply. Who was he? He was a famous devil in the last three years. For a single pill, he dared to annihilate an entire family. Would offending him have a good ending?
However, since this brat had helped him a lot, he could give him a better way to die.
